Use Medium to Markdown to fetch and convert your Medium posts into local markdown files.

Run the command bellow in the Command Palette

> Medium to Markdown: Convert Medium post

{
  "downloadPath": "relative/path/to/your/posts/folder",
  "fileType": "md", // or "mdx"
  "frontmatter": true, // adds frontmatter data
  "canonical": false // adds canoniacl tags - not relevant if "frontmatter" = false
}

This extension is basically a wrapper on top of mediumexporter (forked from xdamman).

The converter uses some heuristics and the result may not looks exactly how you'd like. Please review the result before publishing it.

If you see how it can be improved please create an issue here or in the forked repo. Thank you.
